Yes...
We find in nature things that are possible to be and not to be, since they are found to be generated, and to corrupt, and consequently, they are possible to be and not to be. But it is impossible for these always to exist, for that which is possible not to be at some time is not. Therefore, if everything is possible not to be, then at one time there could have been nothing in existence. Now if this were true, even now there would be nothing in existence, because that which does not exist only begins to exist by something already existing. Therefore, if at one time nothing was in existence, it would have been impossible for anything to have begun to exist; and thus even now nothing would be in existence--which is absurd. Therefore, not all beings are merely possible, but there must exist something the existence of which is necessary. But every necessary thing either has its necessity caused by another, or not. Now it is impossible to go on to infinity in necessary things which have their necessity caused by another, as has been already proved in regard to efficient causes. Therefore we cannot but postulate the existence of some being having of itself its own necessity, and not receiving it from another, but rather causing in others their necessity. This all men speak of as God.

Say you were walking down a road and you came across a bunch of coins scattered all over the place. You would think 'someone has chucked or dropped this money.'
Now say you were walking down the same road and you saw the same coins lined perfectly in straight line. You would know that someone did that on purpose. (No coins are going to drop in a perfect line.)
Look at our world. Humans exist and need air to breathe. Air is made by trees. Trees fed by sunlight and water. Water produced by the clouds which get moisture from the earth's condensation. It all fits in a line made straight. Is it all by accident? Highly doubtful. If nothing worked like this then it could be by accident but then you and me wouldn't even be here asking and answering these questions.
I hope I have helped. In Jesus name. Amen.
Know this...There is only one true God and you will see the Son of God returning on the clouds.

God do exist. The next time he gives you his grace grant it and God will put his existence in your heart and spirit. His sources of grace comes from church, reading the bible, watching someone suffer and you feel a sense of heart for them, etc. You cant beleive on your own but everyone at some point in their life is exposed to some form of grace and we all have a conscience. God is Love.

Ah, belief and faith...it's not concrete stuff by definition. I firmly believe God exists but can I show you God... no...would my interpretation be the exact same as yours if you believed God existed? it's a faith thing and deeply personal. Try praying (don't jump in with the lions, doesn't work that way)

Maybe if you can prove that the wind exist then maybe you can understand the existence of God.

Yeah, He does exist. Don't need a lot of explanation. This is a very personal feeling.

He exists if you believe he does. You can call him by whatever name you choose. You can worship him however you want. That's the wonderful thing about faith. You can believe in something without it being proven.

NO. Only 110% brutally honest people should be allowed to answer this question. A near death experience would tell you, the answer is NO.
